I have seen cream blush used on tons of make-over shows over the years, but I always shied away from buying any. Mainly because I was afraid I would look like a circus clown, or worse a creepy china doll , as I am pretty pale after Winter. Okay, if I’m being honest I’m pretty pale year round. But that’s another story. So, after much consideration, I finally broke down and tried Almay’s Smart Shade Blush. I absolutely LOVE it! I went with the neutral shade (again with the fear of looking like clowns or dolls) and it is the perfect everyday blush for me. It gives me enough color so I don’t look sickly, but also not too heavily made up for class or running errands. Maybe one day I will work up the nerve to try the pink shade….
As a pale girl myself, I’ve been considering buying some of this stuff, but I’m not sure how best to apply it. Do you use your fingers or a sponge?
@Rachael I just put a tiny bit on the tip of my finger and rub it in.
I use cream blush and I love it. It is very bright and “clownish” at first but most of that is due to rubbing it into your cheeks. After a few minutes it tones down.
